    Default unable to manually select Tool with number > 99

    I'm currently about to switch my CNC over to TNG.
    While testing out the software I noticed that I'm not able to manually switch to tools with a tool number lager than 99.
    According to the manual tool number between 1 and 255 are possible. However in the Menu "Machine/Tools/Change" only tools up to 99 are listed.
    Changing with gcode & M6 is working correctly and the correct text is shown in the Popup Text Box.

    Is this by design or is this a bug in the GUI?

    I'm currently running SW 2020.07.31

    best Regards
    Klaus

    999 tools are possible. Manual needs to be updated.
    However in tool change and tool select menu only numbers 1-99 are displayed. This is by design.
